Darby Allin World title defense, Double Jeopardy match set for next AEW Dynamite
AEW World Champion Darby Allin will defend his title for the third straight week as part of next week’s three-hour combo edition of Dynamite & Collision.
Allin will defend against reigning TNT Champion Kevin Knight after telling him Wednesday that if he successfully defended his World title against Brody King, Knight would get the next shot.
Knight defended his own title against MJF in the opener while Allin defeated King, making the save for Knight after he was jumped by MJF.
The two have wrestled just once before with Knight picking up the November win as part of last year’s Continental Classic. Knight will defend his title against Hook on this Saturday’s Collision.
In a Double Jeopardy match, Dax Harwood will take on Orange Cassidy for the first time ever. If Harwood wins, FTR and Tommaso Ciampa earn a future AEW Trios title match where if Cassidy wins, The Conglomeration earn a future AEW World Tag Team match.
